Life in transition with Ray but without Rochelle, Rebecca, and Elcie. The blog title is taken from the girls' names but "roc" and "rebel" works for me too.

Happy St.. Pat's from Ann, Ray & girls
I almost forgot in all the excitement to say erin go bragh or something like that. Maybe I will just dance a jig. Sure, I will. More details in post below for those who haven't already been here.
After seeing Finnish grumpy faces for so long, I can tell he's happy. ;) It's all in the subtleties, you know! :D The green crown is quite charming!
And as for those self-cleaning dishes, well ... Paper plates are great, but so are doggy tongues! :D Clean those dishes reaaaally well! (Only downside is no one wants to eat off of it afterwards ... Hmmm ... Maybe if I ever have bad in-laws again, I'll serve them food on a doggy-cleaned dish!)
Actually, my family refers to paper plates as the "fine china". And of course, for every family get-together, we are eating off the fine china. :D
Well, now email is working (sort of. Not reliably) and as is typical, something else has gone wrong: our phones went dead on Wednesday and are still dead now. We have two lines, not our usual, and we are battling with BT to get us an engineer out to fix the problem. We deal with customer service for people who purchase our product - it is NOT GOOD when we can't communicate properly. Oh, and Blogger for me is down again. I'll post later if I can, but things are hectic here and I have over 100 companies to ring regarding an invitation they received for a seminar we're holding.
*sigh...*
Sorry. I'll stop moaning now. I'm thrilled that Ray is well enough to be home and that you may finally be able to relax a bit.
I'll moan later on my Blog if possible. Otherwise expect a whiney email here and there.
Hugs xxx
PS: tell Elcie, Rebecca & Rochrlle that my sympathies are with them regarding Mathematics. It sucks, and 95% of the stuff you do in school will never be used again. Not exactly an incentive to work hard at it, is it?
Thats a good picture of Ray !! I guess this may be one of your best?
If you ever go across the sea to Ireland Then maybe at the closing of your day You will sit and watch the moon rise over Claddagh And see the sun go down on Galway Bay
Just to hear again the ripple of the trout stream The women in the meadow making hay And to sit beside a turf fire in the cabin And watch the barefoot gossoons at their play
For the breezes blowing o'er the seas from Ireland Are perfumed by the heather as they bloom And the women in the uplands diggin' praties Speak a language that the strangers do not know
For the stranger came and tried to teach us their way They scorned us just for being what we are But they might as well go chasing after moonbeams Or light a penny candle from a star
And if there's going to be a life hereafter And somehow I am sure there's going to be I will ask my god to let me make my heaven In that dear land across the Irish sea
Ann, I need a favour. Or, tp be more accurate I need two favours. Firstly, can you check and see if One Girl & Her Cats is viewable at your end? I'm having real problems here and seems I'm not the only one. And secondly, could you perhaps pop a post up on here saying that if anyone tries to access One Girl & Her Cats and can't to not worry; it's an on going problem that started yesterday and Blogger.com are hopefully trying to sort it?
Thanks x Oh, and did you get my email from my new yahoo account?
Ray looks good. He looks very happy and relieved to be HOME. Love his hat. Hugs to you Granny, I still wonder how you do it all. You are definitely the glue that keeps em all together.... I love you for that.
Happy St.Patrick's Day Too. I didn't realize it was today until I was looking for something on Google!
It is good to see Ray is back home. Being in the hospital sucks. I left the second they discharged me in September. So fast in fact that I had to go back the next day to pick up my prescription!
I am not up to date with what is going on with Ray so I am going to go read more of your blog. Have a good day! :)

If you ever go across the sea to Ireland
Then maybe at the closing of your day
You will sit and watch the moon rise over Claddagh
And see the sun go down on Galway Bay
Just to hear again the ripple of the trout stream
The women in the meadow making hay
And to sit beside a turf fire in the cabin
And watch the barefoot gossoons at their play
For the breezes blowing o'er the seas from Ireland
Are perfumed by the heather as they bloom
And the women in the uplands diggin' praties
Speak a language that the strangers do not know
For the stranger came and tried to teach us their way
They scorned us just for being what we are
But they might as well go chasing after moonbeams
Or light a penny candle from a star
And if there's going to be a life hereafter
And somehow I am sure there's going to be
I will ask my god to let me make my heaven
In that dear land across the Irish sea

an irish blessing for ye, one i'll be using as we play for the big St Paddy's bash tomorrow
may those that love ye, love ye
